Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was an Italian physicist, astronomer, philosopher, engineer and mathematician. He was a critical figure in the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Galileo is perhaps most synonymous with the invention of the modern telescope which has since helped man to discover countless things about the universe. In regard to astronomy, Galileo is erroneously credited with the discovery of the first telescope. His contribution was carrying out massive improvements on the existing telescopes. In 1609, Galileo learnt about the spyglass which was crudely used in ordinary life to view distant places on the land. Galileo began to ...

Introduction Man has always gazed at the stars and attempted to answer the question about the existence of any life anywhere else in the Universe apart from Earth. While for the better part of the first two thousand years After Christ, there was a popular assumption that Man is unique in the Universe, the acceptance of the ‘Copernican Principle’ (Tyson, 2003) in the 1500s, when Nicholas Copernicus put the sun back in its proper place at the center of the solar system, propelled the notion that man may not be unique after all. Given the fact that the three ...

The heat was intense. The orange light shone on the desert, drying up the remaining puddles of water into vapour, rising into the atmosphere. A lizard crawled slowly, almost dying, parched and with a hide so leather like, one would think it was crisp fried. Slowly, I heard the intense ringing of the siren. Waaang waaaang waaang. It was time to get inside our shelters. The shelters were not made of concrete. Unlike the olden days, concrete was the material of choice. All buildings were once made from stone, from cement mixed with water to form hard solid blocks. ...

The universe is so large that scientists believe that there are over two billion galaxies glimmering throughout space. Earth calls one very special galaxy home and that galaxy is the Milky Way.

Imagine living on earth during a time when there was no electricity. A time with absolutely the bare minimum of any type of light pollution and just pure night time darkness. A time that when the sun set, a celestial showcase revealed a blanket of studded diamonds, twinkling in the night with splendor beyond belief. The wild, the magic, the miracles of survival; all captured in the cycle of day and night. The closet star to Earth, our Sun, feeds the planet with energy and warmth and the night sky illuminates the senses with creativity, wonder and storytelling. A ...

Once, mankind believed that the Earth is the center of the solar system, and the entire universe as well. Though tempting as it seems, this narcissistic view was perceived due to the observable motions of the visible heavenly bodies in the sky. However, as mankind learns to invent more powerful tools to understand the cosmos, they learn not just the fact that the sun is the center of the solar system, but also the place of the Earth in the universe. In fact, the view of our place in the universe gradually changed as science and technology cemented over ...

Introduction

Our galaxy, the star system of our solar system, is called the Milky Way. The Milky Way is a grand cluster of stars visible in the sky as a bright band of fog. In the ancient Greek, the word "galaktikos" means "milk", "milky", so the Milky Way and stellar systems similar to it are called galaxies. In our galaxy, there are more than 200 billion stars of very different luminosity and color ("The Milky Way Galaxy - 200 billion stars", 2016). The Solar neighborhood is the volume of the galaxy, where we can observe and study the stars of ...
